Whereas, Coach Willie Jeffries, the greatest coach in Bulldog history, has compiled an outstanding record of victories over twelve seasons in Orangeburg; and

Whereas, the Bulldogs have established a long tradition of competitive football which has filled the professional football ranks with many great players; and

Whereas, the success of the 1994 Bulldog football team brought tremendous pride and recognition upon South Carolina State University, its alumni, and supporters, as well as upon the State of South Carolina; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly would like to publicly recognize and congratulate each player, member of the staff, and each coach, and especially Head Coach Willie Jeffries, upon the conclusion of a memorable season and Heritage Bowl victory. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
